Subgrade materials refer to the original ground underneath a road pavement, when these
materials are made up of expansive soil it is referred to as expansive subgrade. Sometimes …

One of the most challenging natural foundation materials available on Earth which endanger
any construction activity is 'highly compressible peat'or 'organic soils' containing a …

Peat is a well-known problematic soil associated with poor engineering properties. Its
replacement with an expensive competent foundation material is practiced for road …

This article focuses particularly on the improvement of peatland in the Northeast (NE)-Indian
region by using a chemical treatment process. Cement is used as a binding agent to the …

Peat is a renowned problematic soil and needs stabilization to enhance its engineering
properties. Silica fume (SF) and Ordinary Portland Cement (OPC) were extensively adopted …

There has been no research done on the influence of freezing–thawing (F–T) on the
durability and engineering properties of RHA-based geopolymer stabilized peat. Therefore …

Abstract Deep Soil Mix (DSM) is a proven method of ground improvement for deeper
underlying soft soil layers which are otherwise impractical to reach using conventional …

Over the past few years, soil‐cement has been widely used in marine geotechnical
engineering; meanwhile, the safety of soil‐cement in marine environment has attracted wide …

As a foundation soil, peat poses a grave threat to civil engineering construction due to its
softness and large compressibility in nature. Hence, it is crucial to research on its …

In this study, the effect of sand content on compaction, shear strength, and compressibility of
fibrous peat was investigated. The sand used for the study is rounded and poorly graded …
